You must have an insane gold lead for that to happen.

It is a comeback mechanic , if you are that far ahead in gold and should not be dieing.

If the enemy manages to kill you then they are rewarded and it insentivises team behind to remain invested in the game.

it doesn't matter if you're ahead or not, it's just X amount of CS farmed without dying.

No it is not dude what are you talking about .

If, since their last death, a champion has earned 250 more gold from minions and monsters than the enemy team's average during that time, their bounty increases by 50 gold, plus another 50 gold for each additional 150 gold their advantage grows by thereafter.

That doesn't mean you're ahead. That just means they aren't csing as well as you.

They could still be ahead but last hitting like shit.

yikes.

mack91123 votes

So if they aren't ahead of you by cs how are they ahead ?

If they are killing you then you are not developing a bounty through minion gold.

ITS NOT A COMEBACK MECHANICS, there are soo many other ways to give a come back mechanics. Like empowering X champion if they get this objective which is very close to your nexus or any other ways that doesn't PUNISH player for doing GOOD or DECENT.

Dude no that makes no sense .

It is a comeback mechanic and also encourages players ahead to not make stupid plays. It keeps all players in the game invested since one lane snowballing ahead isn't an autowin

Playing safe and farming properly shouldn't legitimately be punished. A 1000g shutdown for farming and not dying is extremely ridiculous

he had double the gold on almost everybody on the enemy team he was just as fed as lissandra and irelia, why shouldn't he be shutdown?

Eedat5 votes

No he didn't? He literally posted the gold values lol. He was 1400 gold ahead of the enemy Fiora and 800 gold behind Irelia.

Either way, being actively punished for literally just farming while not dying isn't just a comeback mechanic. Its actively punishing people for playing well. Imagine you are playing top lane your lane opponent roams mid and dies. You get a 20 CS lead on them for it. Fast forward 10 minutes and you have a 1000g bounty for literally no reason other than not dying while they have none and you still only have a 20 cs lead. How is that in any way fair?

hence the word, almost.

Eedat1 votes

Its not even "almost" though?

ooNerOoo1 votes

what the fuck are you talking about? Almost, meaning he has almost double the gold of the enemy team. https://www.google.com/search?q=almost&oq=almost&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l5.689j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

<Removed by Moderation> he has nearly double the gold of 3 enemy members, that's almost the entire team as it is above half, is it not?

Eedat1 votes

<Removed by Moderation>The enemy team on average has about 8300 gold each. OP had 10,900 gold. Now what is double 8300? 16600. So no, OP did not have "almost double" their gold. He had 2600 more gold than the enemies average.

So no, he didn't have "ALMOST DOUBLE" thier gold. He had about 30% more gold. <Removed by Moderation>

That still doesn't change the fact that he had more gold than almost all the members on the enemy team, thus having a shutdown gold.

You should not be dieing that far ahead fact.

I support more comeback mechanics in game

League isnt about k/da, its about gold income. You had a shit ton of gold, thus have a shutdown bounty.

remember that 20 cs roughly equals a kill. You had 240 cs, a kill, and 0 deaths. You are fed, not k/da wise, but gold wise you were just as fed as your lissandra or irelia....

1000g shutdown from CS alone requires a three thousand gold lead over the enemy team's average from CS alone.

That means you have to have at least 187 CS on top of their average (at an approximate rate of 16 gold per minion) assuming they have zero kills.

That's an entire fucking item worth of gold above them. Yeah. You should have a bounty with that much of a lead.

This. Why reward players for playing bad?

16-17 cs is approximately equal to 1 kill. You had almost a 100 cs lead over your enemy laner, which is the equivalence of 5-6 kills worth of gold. You may have been 1/0/0, but with your cs lead, you had the gold equivalence of being 6-7/0/0 and even in CS.

The only Kayle game I see on you is from Nexus Blitz... I would understand if it was a Summoner's Rift complaint but Nexus Blitz matches are meant to be fast and to be over by the 20 minute mark.

If Nasus is farming toplane all game and he can instant kill anyone; but needs 4 people to fight him to kill him... I think you'd want more than 200G.

Disulfiram2 votes

Which is exactly the point of the new system: a 0/0/0 Kayle with 500 cs has about the same gold as a 20/0/0 Kayle with 200 cs, and the bounty system now reflects that.

What was her CS? What was the average CS of the opposing team? The patch update a while ago made it possible to obtain a bounty if you're CS is higher than the enemy team's CS.

Done252 votes

It's because you were farmed as heck with no deaths. Irelia didn't have a bounty because she died a lot. It's to punish people who just AFK split push.

Packun Flower2 votes

That is really fucked up.

Mc Raton1 votes

The bounty system by itself is dumb. It now show you who you have to focus in a fight to win shit tons of money. It's lame and sincerely annoying. For instance yes, getting a huge bounty when you have no kill is lame as now people will try hard to camp you to get your gold value wich often lead in frustration for the said person who have a bounty.
